I grew up in a small town in Florida called Gainesville. I didn't have much money to spend on expensive clothing while growing up. However, I always had a passion for drawing and getting fly. Basketball has always been my first love, as I've been playing since I was little. After high school, I aspired to play at the next level, but that didn't work out. I felt pretty low because basketball was all I ever wanted to do, and I didn't have a backup plan. When I graduated from high school, I felt lost and unsure about my future. Then, I came across a clothing brand owner on YouTube, and that inspired me to start my own clothing brand. I talked to some friends about it, and they encouraged me to go for it, so I did. I didn't fully understand what I was getting into, but I did a lot of research on creating a clothing brand and learned about all the necessary steps. One of the first things I did was choose a name, and I decided on D24oria. The "D" stands for my middle name, "24" symbolizes my basketball number, and "euphoria" represents a feeling of intense excitement and happiness. This name stood out to me because it reflects my positive outlook despite the challenges I've faced. What I hope people take away from my story is the importance of staying positive, because you never know what you can overcome and achieve.
